Why do we generally hear a thunder when there is a Bolt of lightning

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

When a lightning bolt travels from the cloud to the ground it actually opens up a little hole in the air, called a channel. Once then light is gone the air collapses back in and creates a sound wave that we hear as thunder. The reason we see lightning before we hear thunder is because light travels faster than sound!

As part of an interview for a summer job with the Coast Guard, you are asked to help determine the search area for two sunken sh

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The resultant velocity is $v_t=10 knots$

Explanation:

Apply the law of conservation of momentum

$M_L *v_L + M_f * V_f = (M_L + M_f) v_t$

Where $M_L$ is the mass of the Luxury Liner = 40,000 ton

$v_L$ is the velocity of Luxury Liner = 20 knots due west

$M_f$ mass of freighter = 60,000

$v_f$ is the velocity of freighter = 10 knots due north

Apply the law of conservation of momentum toward the the west direction

$v_f = 0 \ knots$

So the equation would be

$M_L *v_L = (M_L + M_f) v_t$

Substituting values

$40000*20 = (40000+ 60000)v_t_w$

Where $v_t_w$ the final velocity due west

Making $v_t_w$ the subject

$v_t_w = \frac{40,000* 20}{(40000 + 60000)}$

$= 8 \ knots$

Apply the law of conservation of momentum toward the the north direction

$v_L = 0 \ knots$

So the equation would be

$M_f *v_f = (M_L + M_f) v_t_n$

Where $v_t_n$ the final velocity due north

Making $v_t_n$ the subject

$v_t_n = \frac{60,000* 10}{(40000 + 60000)}$

$= 6 \ knots$

The resultant velocity is

$v_t = \sqrt{v_t_w^2 + v_t_n^2}$

$= \sqrt{8^2 +6^2}$

$v_t=10 knots$

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tank. The fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differential h

Sloan [31]

Answer:

77.88 lbm/ft³

Explanation:

Given,

Specific gravity, SG = 1.25

Density of water, ρ = 62.30 lbm/ft³

density of the fluid =

= S.G x ρ_{water}

= 62.30 x 1.25

= 77.88 lbm/ft³

Density of the fluid is equal to 77.88 lbm/ft³

The pressure of a sample of gas is measured as 49 torrent. Convert this to atmosphere

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

P = 0.0644 atm

Explanation:

Given that,

The pressure of a sample of gas is measured as 49 torr.

We need to convert this temperature to atmosphere.

The relation between torr and atmosphere is as follow :

1 atm = 760 torr

1 torr = (1/760) atm

49 torr = (49/760) atm

= 0.0644 atm

Hence, the presssure of the sample of gas is equal to 0.0644 atm.
